Gihan’s Restaurant & Pub in Kohuwala, Nugegoda, was renovated and refurbished. For the past two and a half decades, it has been an important landmark in Kohuwala, Nugegoda. It has also become a household name in Colombo society. In the past, the owner prioritised the pub over the restaurant. The current generation of management desired a makeover to offer the restaurant equal significance as a proper dining establishment while preserving the established clientele who were regular visitors to the pub. This client’s need presented us with a challenge, and we responded with a succession of areas with varying atmospheres and levels of solitude. The overall design was divided into six sections. The pub has two distinct areas, private dining rooms, a takeaway area with eating facilities, an outside takeaway for quick pickups, and a space for private parties and gatherings. The client gave us a limited budget but expected us to completely change the space into a modern restaurant and pub with a contemporary flair. Metal, wood, and bricks rescued from the original building were harmonically employed throughout the room. The same materials are used throughout the restaurant, such as cement finish tiles, exposed brick walls, timber panelling on the ceiling, weathered finish table tops with steel matte black frames, brown synthetic leather finish seatings, and warm industrial style lights, to create an overall rustic finish that invites customers to unwind after a long day. The weathered finish table tops were added to the existing steel leg frame, which was complemented by new industrial design drop lights and reupholstered vintage booth chairs, not only to save money but also to provide consumers with a variety of furniture alternatives. Diversification of contemporary and classic materials, as well as varying light quality and intensity in the restaurant and bar, were employed to try to create separate sections with distinct atmospheres. The front facade was created to be a prominent landmark in the area, making it more distinctive and a gorgeous premise for anyone passing through.
